It's been great!

I like that there is such a strong community and focus on building that connection between students, teachers, and parents. I appreciate that this environment allows the students to feel like they can enact change when they disagree with something or see an issue.

I love the boarding environment at Garrison. Being a boarder allows you to get full access to the campus 24/7. I am able to walk around the campus even on the weekend. The community is diverse. There will be many activities throughout the year that brings the community together.

As a recent GFS alum, I wouldn’t recommend it. There are better schools in the area that actually challenge and support their students. At GFS, as long as you're passing, they don’t really care.

If your child is gifted in any way, this is not the school for you. Most families are receiving a lot...
